Add Industrial IoT capabilities to standalone industrial machinery.

Overview

The Portenta Machine Control is a fully-centralized, low-power, industrial control unit able to drive equipment and machinery. It can be programmed using the Arduino framework or other embedded development platforms.

Thanks to its computing power, the Portenta Machine Control enables a wide range of predictive maintenance and AI use cases. It enables the collection of real-time data from the factory floor and supports the remote control of equipment, even from the cloud, when desired.

Key benefits include:

  • Shorter Time-To-Market

  • Give new life to existing products

  • Add connectivity for monitoring and control

  • Tailor it to your need, each I/O pin can be configured

  • Make equipment smarter to be ready for the AI revolution

  • Provide security and robustness from the ground up

  • Open new business model opportunity (e.g. servitization)

  • Interact with your equipment with advanced HMI

  • Modular Design for adaptation & upgrades

The Portenta Machine Control allows companies to enable new business-as-a-service models by monitoring customer usage of equipment for predictive maintenance and providing valuable production data.

The Portenta Machine Control enables industry standard soft-PLC control and is able to connect to a range of external sensors and actuators with isolated digital I/O, 4-20mA compatible analog I/O, 3 configurable temperature channels, and a dedicated I2C connector. Multiple choices are available for network connectivity, including USB, Ethernet, and WiFi/Bluetooth® Low Energy in addition to industry specific protocols such as RS485. All I/O are protected by resettable fuses and onboard power management has been engineered to ensure maximum reliability in harsh environments.

The Portenta Machine Control core runs a Portenta H7 microcontroller board (included), a highly reliable design operating at industrial temperature ranges (-40 °C to +85 °C) with a dual-core architecture that doesn’t require any external cooling. The main processor offers the possibility of connecting external Human Machine Interfaces like displays, touch panels, keyboards, joysticks, and mice to enable on-site reconfiguration of state machines and direct manipulation of processes.

The Portenta Machine Control’s design addresses a large variety of use scenarios. It is possible to configure a selection of the I/O pins via software. The Portenta Machine Control stands out as a powerful computer to unify and optimize production where one single type of hardware can serve all of your needs. Among other outstanding features are the following:

  • Industrial performance leveraging the power of Portenta boards

  • DIN bar compatible housing

  • Push-in terminals for fast connection

  • Compact device (170 x 90x 50 mm)

  • Reliable design, operating at industrial temperature rates (-40 °C to +85 °C) with a dual-core architecture that doesn’t require any external cooling

  • Embedded RTC (Real Time Clock) to ensure perfect synchronization of processes

  • Leverage the embedded connectivity without any external parts

  • CE, FCC, and RoHS certified

The Portenta Machine Control can be used in multiple industries, across a wide range of machine types, including: labelling machine, form & seal machine, cartoning machine, gluing machine, electric oven, industrial washer & dryers, mixers, etc.

Add the Portenta Machine Control to your existing processes effortlessly and become the owner of your solutions in the market of machines.

Arduino Pro at SPS Italy 2023
Arduino Pro at SPS Italy 2023
May 12, 2023

Mark your calendars: May 23rd-25th we’ll be at SPS Italia, one of the country’s leading fairs for smart, digital, sustainable industry and a great place to find out what’s new in automation worldwide. We expect a lot of buzz around AI for IoT applications – and, of course, we’ll come prepared to give our own, open-source perspective on the AIoT trend.  At Arduino Pro’s booth C012, pavilion 7, our experts will be presenting some of the latest additions to our ever-growing ecosystem, which includes everything companies need to fully embrace digital transformation with professional performance paired with Arduino’s ease of use and open-source philosophy. You can explore our complete digital brochure here, but let us point out some recent highlights. Meet the Arduino Pro ecosystem at SPS Italia 2023 Over the years, Arduino Pro has built quite the presence on the market with SOMs like the Portenta H7 and X8, recently joined by the Portenta C33: a cost-effective, high-performance option that makes automation accessible to more users than ever, based on the RA6M5, an Arm® Cortex®-M33 microcontroller from Renesas.Our Nicla family of ultra-compact boards also expanded: after Nicla Sense ME and Nicla Vision, Nicla Voice packs all the sensors, intelligence and connectivity you need for speech recognition on the edge, leveraging AI and ML. What’s more, the Arduino ecosystem also includes turnkey solutions like the Portenta Machine Control and the new Opta, our very first microPLC, designed in partnership with Finder to support the Arduino programming experience with the main PLC standard languages – and available in 3 variants with different connectivity features: Opta Lite, Opta RS485, and Opta WiFi. Both the Portenta Machine Control and Opta can be programmed via the new PLC IDE, designed to help you boost production and build automation with your own Industry 4.0 control system. Finally, since SPS Italy’s last edition we have
